[0002] Termites are distributed in tropical and subtropical regions with a wide distribution range. They mostly live in warm, humid, and hidden places. Termites are gregarious and nest-dwelling. Their food mainly consists of cellulose and hemicellulose from plants and wood, such as plant roots, stems and bark, wood, dry branches and fallen leaves, and cellulose-containing wood products. They are highly destructive, so termite control and extermination are necessary in various regions. Using termite sex pheromones to lure termites and then using pesticides to kill the colony is a better termite control method. However, the preparation of termite sex pheromones in current technology is relatively complex, and the sex pheromones cannot be automatically added during the attraction process, which affects the attraction effect. In addition, after a period of attraction, pesticides need to be added manually for extermination, which is also a relatively cumbersome operation. Summary of the Invention

[0031] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the invention. Therefore, the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0033] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments. Example

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a termite control method and attractant based on termite sex pheromone attraction. The termite control method based on termite sex pheromone attraction includes the preparation of sex pheromones, mixing inducing agents, aldehydes, alkenes, alcohols, and terpenes with organic solvents in a certain proportion. The termite sex pheromone is prepared in the following proportions: inducing agents 50-70%, aldehydes 5-10%, alkenes 5-10%, alcohols 5-10%, and terpenes 5-10%. It should be noted that in order to achieve the best effect, the specific proportions can be finely adjusted according to various factors such as termite species, ecological habits, regional environment, and whether it is outdoors or indoors. When necessary, the optimal proportions can be determined through experimental verification and gradual optimization.

[0035] Sex pheromone application involves applying a mixed solvent to a damp solid material and inside the attractor assembly 100, which allows termites to be attracted to the attractor assembly 100 by the evaporation of sex pheromones in the air.

[0036] The attractant assembly 100 is installed by placing solid material on the fixing frame 102 inside the attractant and burying it in areas where termites frequently appear. The solid material is made of pine wood, which is soaked before use. After applying sex pheromones, it is wrapped with newspaper or similar materials to maintain humidity and keep it volatile for a longer period of time, thereby improving the efficiency of attracting termites.

[0037] When a large number of termites are lured into the attractant, termite powder is automatically added. The termites carry the powder into the nest, and after a period of time, the entire nest is infected, quickly killing the termites.

[0038] During the process of attracting termites, sex pheromones can be automatically added, thereby making the device attractive for a longer period of time and able to lure a large number of termites into the attractor component 100. Example

[0039] Reference Figures 1-6 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.

[0040] Specifically, it also includes a lure assembly 100, which includes a box body 101, a fixing frame 102, a top cover 103, and a receiving member 104. The fixing frame 102 is fixed to the inner wall of the box body 101, the top cover 103 is disposed on the top of the box body 101, the receiving member 104 is disposed on the inner bottom wall of the box body 101, and a through hole S is provided on the surface of the box body 101.

[0041] The box 101 is rectangular, with through holes S evenly distributed around its perimeter to facilitate termite entry. The fixing frame 102 is divided into two parts: one part is T-shaped, with one end fixed below each row of through holes S on the inner wall of the box 101 to facilitate termite crawling onto the pine wood through the through holes S; the other part is ring-shaped and located in the middle of the box 101 to limit and fix the pine wood, allowing it to be placed more securely inside the attractant. The top cover 103 covers the top of the box 101 to prevent excessive soil from entering the attractant during installation. The top cover 103 has a U-shaped handle for easy removal. The support 104 supports the bottom of the pine wood.

[0042] The feeding assembly 200 is disposed inside the top cover 103 and includes a fixing ring 201, a feeding cylinder 202, a feeding component 203, a limiting component 204, a trigger component 205, and a vibrating component 206. The inner wall of the top cover 103 has an installation cavity P. The fixing ring 201 is fixed inside the installation cavity P. The feeding cylinder 202 is fixed inside the fixing ring 201. The feeding component 203 is disposed inside the feeding cylinder 202. The limiting component 204 is disposed inside the fixing ring 201. The trigger component 205 is fixed on the receiving component 104. The vibrating component 206 is fixed to the inner wall of the fixing ring 201.

[0043] The feeding cylinder 202 can rotate within the fixed ring 201 and is limited by the limiting member 204 to prevent deviation during rotation. The feeding member 203 can adjust the feeding mode so that sex pheromones are continuously added to the pine wood to maintain the attraction effect. The trigger member 205 is used to adjust the feeding mode of the feeding member 203. The vibration member 206 can improve the feeding efficiency and prevent large-scale blockage. Example

[0044] Reference Figures 2-9 This is the third embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the first two embodiments.

[0045] Specifically, the lure assembly 100 also includes positioning pins 105, which are fixed to the four corners of the bottom of the top cover 103, and the top of the box body 101 is provided with matching pin holes Y.

[0046] There are four positioning pins 105 with two different diameters. The two diagonally opposite positioning pins 105 in each group have the same diameter. When the top cover 103 is installed on the top of the box body 101, the positioning pins 105 are inserted into the corresponding pin holes Y. The installation position of the top cover 103 is restricted by positioning pins 105 of different specifications to avoid misalignment.

[0047] The receiving component 104 includes a fixed frame 104a, a receiving plate 104b, a slider 104c, and a first spring 104d. The fixed frame 104a is fixed to the inner bottom wall of the box 101, and has grooves H on all four sides. The receiving plate 104b slides in the fixed frame 104a. The slider 104c is fixed around the receiving plate 104b and slides in the grooves H. The two ends of the first spring 104d are fixed to the inner wall of the groove H and the slider 104c, respectively.

[0048] The fixed frame 104a is rectangular and the receiving plate 104b is circular. It moves up and down within the fixed frame 104a. When the pine wood is placed in the fixed frame 102, the bottom end of the pine wood is located at the top of the receiving plate 104b. The weight of the pine wood itself presses the receiving plate 104b down to the bottom. At this time, the elastic force of the first spring 104d is as balanced as possible with the weight of the pine wood. When termites slowly gnaw on the pine wood, due to the reduction in the weight of the pine wood, the first spring 104d will drive the receiving plate 104b and the pine wood on top of it to move upward.

[0049] The feeding component 203 includes a partition plate 203a, a feeding pipe 203b, and a rotating door 203c. The partition plate 203a is fixed inside the feeding cylinder 202 and divides its interior into a first chamber V1 and a second chamber V2. The feeding cylinder 202 is fixed to the inner wall of the mounting cavity P and extends to the bottom of the feeding cylinder 202. A first hole K1 is opened on the inner side of the first chamber V1. A second hole K2 communicating with the first hole K1 is opened on the feeding pipe 203b. The rotating door 203c is rotatably connected to the bottom of the second chamber V2.

[0050] Multiple partition plates 203a are provided, and at least eight first chambers V1 are provided, arranged symmetrically in groups of four. Between each group of first chambers V1 is a second chamber V2. The volume of the two second chambers V2 is larger than that of the first chambers V1, and both are fan-shaped. A cap can be fixed to the bottom of each first chamber V1 by screws or other means, and a certain amount of sex pheromones is injected into it. The second hole K2 opened on the side wall of the feeding pipe 203b is the same size as the first hole K1. When the feeding cylinder 202 rotates, the second hole K2 will rotate sequentially to the position that connects with each first hole K1, thereby exporting the sex pheromones in the first chambers V1 from the feeding cylinder 202 to the pine wood, soaking the pine wood and greatly delaying its effect of attracting termites with sex pheromones.

[0051] The termite powder is added to the second chamber V2. Its effect is to allow the termites to carry it into the termite nest and infect all the termites in the nest, thereby achieving the purpose of extermination. This powder can be set as needed by those skilled in the art. The rotating door 203c is connected to the opening of the second chamber V2 by a shaft.

[0052] The limiting component 204 includes a limiting pin 204a and a limiting block 204b. The limiting pin 204a is fixed to the inner wall of the fixing ring 201 and cooperates with the rotating door 203c. The limiting block 204b is fixed to both sides of the feeding cylinder 202. The fixing ring 201 has a limiting groove J that cooperates with the limiting block 204b.

[0053] There are two limiting pins 204a. In the initial state, they block the rotating door 203c, allowing the rotating door 203c to close the second chamber V2. As the feeding cylinder 202 continues to rotate, the position of the rotating door 203c will move with it. When it moves to 90 degrees, it means that the termites have eaten a lot of the pine wood and the number of termites is already large. At this time, pesticide powder can be added. At the same time, the position of the limiting pins 204a will separate from the rotating door 203c. The rotating door 203c rotates downward by its own gravity, opening the second chamber V2. The pesticide powder in the second chamber V2 is sprinkled on the pine wood and inside the box 101. There is no need to manually observe the number of termites or the timing of pesticide application, which greatly improves the termite extermination efficiency.

[0054] The limiting block 204b and the limiting groove J can limit the feeding cylinder 202 to prevent it from shifting during rotation.

[0055] The trigger 205 includes a trigger rod 205a and a drive rod 205b. The trigger 205 is fixed to the top of the slider 104c, and the drive rod 205b is fixed to the inner end of the trigger rod 205a. Spiral grooves G are provided on both sides of the feeding cylinder 202, and the drive rod 205b slides in the spiral grooves G.

[0056] The trigger rod 205a is rectangular and there are two of them, symmetrically distributed on the top of the two sliders 104c. When the two drive rods 205b slide in the spiral groove G, they can drive the feeding cylinder 202 to rotate. The fixed ring 201 has grooves on both sides to facilitate the up and down movement of the drive rods 205b.

[0057] As the pine wood is being eaten by termites, its weight decreases. The first spring 104d will cause the receiving plate 104b and the pine wood on top to move upward. As the receiving plate 104b moves upward, it will cause the trigger rod 205a and the drive rod 205b to move upward, so that the drive rod 205b slides in the spiral groove G, thereby driving the feeding cylinder 202 to rotate.

[0058] The vibrating element 206 includes a fixed tube 206a, a vibrating rod 206b, and a buffer ball 206c. The fixed tube 206a is fixed to both sides of the inner wall of the fixed ring 201, the vibrating rod 206b slides inside the fixed tube 206a, and the buffer ball 206c is located inside the fixed tube 206a.

[0059] Two fixed tubes 206a are provided, symmetrically fixed to the inner wall of the fixed ring 201. The end of the vibrating rod 206b is chamfered. The buffer ball 206c is elastic. When the feeding cylinder 202 rotates 90 degrees to the maximum angle, the rotating door 203c rotates downward by its own gravity. At this time, the middle part of the rotating door 203c will hit the vibrating rod 206b, and the elastic action of the vibrating rod 206b and the buffer ball 206c will cause it to swing, thereby improving the powder addition efficiency and avoiding excessive powder from sticking to the rotating door 203c.

[0060] In use, sex pheromones are added to the first chamber V1, and powder is added to the second chamber V2. Then, the feeding cylinder 202 is manually rotated so that the limiting pin 204a locks the rotating door 203c, and the starting point of the spiral groove G corresponds to the groove on the fixing ring 201. Then, pine wood that has been soaked in advance and has some sex pheromones added is placed in the fixing frame 102. The weight of the pine wood itself presses the receiving plate 104b down to the bottom. Then, the top cover 103 is installed on the top of the box body 101 so that the positioning pin 105 is inserted into the pin hole Y. The installation position of the top cover 103 is restricted by positioning pins 105 of different specifications, so that the drive rod 205b can slide in the spiral groove G. The installation is then completed. The attractant is then buried near the area where termites are present.

[0061] Termites, lured by sex pheromones, crawl into the box 101 through the through-hole S and slowly gnaw on the pine wood. As the pine wood is eaten by the termites, its weight decreases, causing the first spring 104d to move the receiving plate 104b and the pine wood on top of it upwards. During this upward movement, the receiving plate 104b moves the trigger rod 205a and the drive rod 205b upwards, causing the drive rod 205b to slide within the spiral groove G. This, in turn, rotates the feeding cylinder 202. At this time, the second hole K2 rotates sequentially to a position communicating with each of the first holes K1, thereby releasing the sex pheromones from the first chamber V1. The feed cylinder 202 is directed onto the pine wood, soaking it and significantly delaying the effect of attracting termites with sex pheromones. When the cylinder moves to 90 degrees, the termites have already eaten a significant amount of the pine wood, indicating a large number of termites. At this point, pesticide powder can be added. Simultaneously, the position of the limiting pin 204a will separate from the rotating door 203c. The rotating door 203c rotates downwards under its own gravity, opening the second chamber V2. The pesticide powder in the second chamber V2 is then sprinkled onto the pine wood and inside the box 101. This eliminates the need for manual observation of the number of termites and the timing of pesticide application, greatly improving the termite extermination efficiency.

[0062] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
